Find somebody in your area with plum or damson trees and do a deal. They give you plums and you make them some jam. There are LOTS of people in my area who have damson trees but don't harvest them, so you might be lucky. Go and have a trawl around your area. Yummy.
Thanks, yes it might be worth waiting a while, they are certainly expensive, just feeling a bit bored at the moment, I will wonder round the village and see what's what with the neighbours fruit trees instead, thanks again.
Do you have a local market? Usually a good place for things like this...I've just bought a large scoop of plums for £1....weighed at home (just curious) at just on 3 lb.
